The University of Delaware’s David M. Nelson Athletic Complex will host the annual Fourth of July fireworks display presented by the city of Newark.

This year’s event will be held from 6-10 p.m., Tuesday, July 4.

There will be food, fun and entertainment featuring arts and crafts booths, games and live music beginning at 6.

Free parking will be available in the UD lots. Those who attend are asked to leave their pets at home and to be sure they are secured safely during the fireworks, which tend to scare pets.

Should it rain, the event will be held Wednesday, July 5, with fireworks only.

If there is questionable weather, call the city’s Leisure Time Hot Line at 302-366-7147 for rain date information or cancellation. For additional information, call the Newark Parks and Recreation office at 302-366-7000.
